If I get them I'll probably get 4-5 lug 18mm adapters. I tried looking for pix of these wheels mounted on an E30 but I'm not finding any. Is there a reason these wheels wouldn't work on an E30 with spacers?
Car is a stock height 92 cabrio that has an M30 swap.
Thanks!
Next purchase is 42Design 18mm spacers giving me an et23 offset. I think I've seen that the max tire size I can fit on a non-tweaked cabrio fender is 225/45/17. Can anyone confirm? Two of the wheels already have decent BFG tires in this size.
Thanks!

Considering the following combinations for daily summer driving....stock suspension. Do not want to use spacers or roll fenders. Will these combinations be a direct fit bolt-on?
ESM 002 15x8 ET15 w/ Khumo Escta AST 225-50-15
ESM 002 16x8 ET20 w/ Riken ZR 205-50-16
Thanks!JB

Would anyone be able to help with choosing the appropriate offset in 15x8/15x9 size?
Link to the spec sheet --> http://www.work-wheels.com.au/files/pdf/equip-40.pdf
Also would you think I would be able to run a bbk if I went the standard or big brake barrel choice?
Anyone have any insight into what offset I should be buying?sigpic

Need help determining offset along with tire size
Hey everyone,
I want to install the standard kamotors fender flares on my car and run as much rubber as I can since I am finishing up a turbo 24v swap currently. I want to run a minimum 9" wide tire, wider if possible. I would like to stick to a 17" rim, and my car is an early model so from my understanding the fenders already aid in fitting some larger tires as is.
That being said, what offset should I be looking for? also, how wide can I go with the wheel?
Thanks in advance guys. I am really trying ti minimize buying parts I can't use at this point as I have been doing a lot of that learning along the way...

I've started my own just to find a setup that will work on 16x7.

1987 325is; 17" Style 32 Fitment questions
I have searched the thread and failed to find an answer. 1987 325is, H&R Sport Springs with Bilsteins. Would like to run e39 Style 32's, 17x8 and 17x9; ET20 & ET26 and 215/40's. I plan to use adapters, which range from 18mm and up. Is this possible without too much heartburn?
Or, is it more sane to consider Style 32's from a 2003 330i (just not quite as good looking.) The back wheels are 17x8 with an ET47. I would plan to use this wheel at all four corners of the e30. What adapter size (F&R) and tire size (F&R) would you recommend if I wanted to avoid any modifications (rolling, trimming, camber, etc.) Looking for them to be a little tucked, certainly not flush.
Thanks for the help.

Just out of curiosity.

17x8/9 et 32?
Can I space this out? Is it going to look silly either way?20% Accurate
